The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1369: Hoffman's Perseverance

Kalu, the king of the beasts of Trub Mountain, is a beast that even Hoffman feels tricky. He once saw a Kalu leaving the mountains and how to slaughter a group of more than two hundred people armed for hunting. The team, who regained his cub from the hunting team, still remembers the look Karu looked at when he left with his cub in his mouth. The look cold enough to freeze his soul made Karu this beast. The king is more like a monster than a monster.

Although his strength is not a little bit stronger than it was then, but every time he thinks of the original scene, he still does not have the slightest confidence that he can survive the attack of the Karoo that year.

At the beginning, he was surprised when he knew that Bain Ruf’s companion beasts were actually two Karoos, and subconsciously thought that they were just a lie, but as the news was confirmed, he began to feel that En Ruf should be regarded as the strongest person in the Lumberjack family.

But what happened afterwards made him suspect that Bain Ruf’s companion beast was Karoo again, because Baine, who has two Karoos, was evaded by his family’s old man and could only be a puppet patriarch. This It is seriously inconsistent with the strength of Karoo in his mind.

The arrest of Bain Ruf made him affirm his guess. Bain Ruf’s companion beast is not a Karoo at all. It is just a beast that resembles Karoo because of the power of Karoo. The person responsible for the capture of Bain Ruf might have already died in the Karoo attack.

It was not until later that Hoffman released Baine Ruf and asked him to summon the companion beast he had hidden in the fog to help him maintain order, only to realize that he was wrong. The companion beast that Baine possessed was indeed wrong. It is Karoo, the king of beasts, but these two Karoos are different from the normal Karoo.

I don’t know if it was Bain Ruf who crippled his companion beasts, or whether the two Karoos themselves were defective. In short, Hoffman just felt that these two companion beasts had the appearance and claws of Karoo. And Fang, even strength, but it was so different from the Karoo in his memory.

Hoffman doesn’t know the difference between the two, but he knows that if the two have to be different, it’s the difference between a wild forest leopard and a domestic pet cat, like Bain Ruff’s companion animal Karoo. One or two, he can handle even ten.

So when he guessed that Bain Ruf, who was framed by others, was most likely to free his companion beast to hurt people because of his anger, he did not have the slightest fear to rush towards the square, and on the arrival square, he saw a Karoo. When he was biting at the top of a lumberjack family, he was also able to drew his sword calmly and repelled the Karoo.

Although the overall combat power of this Karoo can't be compared with the real wild Karoo, its body is still Karoo, and the skin, scales and hair on the surface of the body still have strong defense power, even if Hoffman The sword that was slashed with full force can still only leave a small scar on the Karu body, and would not cause too much damage to it.

After the attack was repelled, the Karoo also seemed to feel that Hoffman was a threat to him, so he stopped attacking other targets, and quickly ran back to Bain Ruf, and then confronted Hoffman. Bare teeth screaming.

At this time, Bain Ruf also saw Hoffman. He knew how strong Hoffman was, and immediately called the other Karoo back to him, and then turned toward Hoffman with a cold face, and said: "Hoffman, are you planning to intervene in this matter?"

"I released you. I can't let you hurt them." Hoffman walked up to Bain with the knight sword while beckoning the others to leave.

Baine said solemnly, "Do you think it was the old Bjorn I killed?"

"No, I think you were framed." Hoffman said directly in his heart.

Baine was stunned. He didn't expect Hoffman to answer him in this way. He could also hear Hoffman's words not casually perfunct him, but really believed that he was not the murderer of old Bjorn. So he was silent for a moment, and the anger on his face due to being framed, misunderstood, and irritated was slightly reduced, and said to Hoffman: "What are you going to do now? Prepare to catch me again, and wait until everything is over. , Will you judge me again?"

Hoffman said solemnly: "I don't want to do this. I hope you can put the shackles on your own. I can guarantee that during this period of time, nothing will happen to your disadvantage."

"What then? What about the family trial? Can you guarantee me a fair and fair trial?" Bain asked again.

Hoffman didn't answer him this time.

Although Hoffman didn't answer, Bain already knew the answer. A sneered sneer appeared on his face, and he said, "You are no different from those guys."

As he said, his body suddenly seemed to be congested, turning red, even the pair of mutated big horns on his head were red with blood, and the two Karoo bodies beside him also appeared similar to him. The blood red covered the surface of Karoo's body, and Karoo's eyes became flushed, looking even more hideous than before.

If only the appearance has changed, it will not make Hoffman too nervous. The problem is that he feels that at this moment, whether it is Bain Ruff or the two Karoos, the overall momentum has changed. , And he can feel the power surging from the three bodies.

If the three just now only made him feel a little troublesome to clean up, then the three of them can already pose a threat to his life, and they are a great threat.

The change of the situation made Hoffman's look particularly solemn, and he no longer casually held the knight's sword with one hand, but instead clasped his hands tightly, and did not pre-attack, but rather cautiously performed general knight swordsmanship. In the defensive corner, he intends to use a defensive counterattack against Bain and his companion beasts.

However, what Bain Ruf thought of at this moment was not how to attack Hoffman in front of him, but was a little surprised at the increase in his strength. This method was the first time he used this method, so he had never thought of his own in advance. The strength will increase so much that he is a little unaware of measures for a while.

While staying in the basement of the manor, Bain Ruf and his two companion beasts were used as experimental subjects by Leo, sometimes taking their blood, studying their blood, and sometimes testing some weirdness. Mysterious rituals, and take some unknown potions from time to time.

Although these experiments did not cause any substantial harm to Bain, he was always in fear, afraid that when he would lose his life due to a mistake by Leo, it would not be a similar idea to escape him. Dare to move.

Those days were the days he didn’t want to recall, but he was not without any benefits. For example, the blood burning ability he used now was inspired by him and Caru after taking a bottle of Leo’s potion. , Or more correctly, it was inspired by Karoo, he just because of the particularity of the companion beast, so that he also has this ability.

At this time, he couldn't help thinking, he knew that this ability was so useful. When he was caught at the appointed place that day, he could use this ability to remove the poison from his body, and then fight back in a Jedi to get rid of the person who caught him. , There will be no trouble now.

Thinking of this, Bain's thoughts returned to the current battle. After seeing Hoffman's defensive posture, he immediately directed Karoo to attack Hoffman without hesitation, and he dismantled it. I got off a street lamp made of a stone pillar on the square, hugged the stone pillar, and smashed toward Hoffman.

Although the attacks of the two Karoos were very fierce, these were just beasts after all. Their attacks were instinctive, and every movement was full of flaws.

Hoffman was able to deal with it with ease, and even found the flaws in Karoo's attack, and counterattacked at weaknesses such as the eyes and mouth, so that the two Karoos could never cooperate.

But Bain’s entry into the battlefield made Hoffman a little strenuous, because Bain’s attack was unreasonable, and it was simply to use his strength to smash randomly, easily disrupting Hoffman’s fighting rhythm, and even he did it. Don't worry about Hoffman's counterattack, because with his attack speed, he can be hurt by Hoffman while also causing damage to Hoffman at the same time. It is basically a desperate style of life-for-life.

Although Hoffman is experienced in combat, this is the first time he has encountered this kind of rogue style of play. If only Bain is alone, he still has a way to deal with it, but the problem is that there are two eyeing eyes next to Bain. Kalu, this made him unable to deal with it for a while, so he could only retreat while fighting, using the method of delay to consume the opponent’s power, and also hope that Bain and Kalu’s special method of stimulating combat effectiveness will not Lasts too long.

Although Bain was a little bit stunned by the power he suddenly ignited, he was not completely irrational. He knew very well the shortcomings of his current method of stimulating power, so he could not find it in a short time. When Hoffman was taken, he began to consider retreat.

When he waved the stone pillar in his hand and forced Hoffman back again and again, suddenly he threw the stone pillar towards Hoffman.

Because of the inertial thinking caused by the previous attack, Hoffman did not expect Bain to make such an action, unable to effectively dodge for a while, and was hit by the stone pillar.

It's just that when Hoffman was hit by a stone pillar, he quickly adjusted his body based on his own experience, allowing his body to fly outward along the strength of the stone pillar, and when he landed, he also rolled a few times. While removing excess power from his body, he also guarded against subsequent attacks that Bain might make.

However, when he stood firm and started looking for Bain's figure, he found that Bain, who had always had the upper hand since just now, was sitting on the bumpy back of one Karoo, together with the other Karoo. Running towards the dense fog not far away, it seemed that he was going to escape.

Hoffman saw this situation and knew that there might be a problem with the method Bain used to stimulate his strength, and his chance to fight back came, so he didn't hesitate to chase after him with the knight's sword, and screamed towards him. Baine's escape direction blocked Baine.

Although the members of the lumberjack family could see that Baine was running away and heard Hoffman’s screams, they had no idea of ​​blocking Baine. When Baine rushed over, they all hid. No one who was far away dared to move forward.

Seeing Bain easily escaped from the square, Hoffman couldn't help cursing in his heart, but he didn't stop and blame those who gave way. Instead, he speeded up and caught up.

Although Hoffman felt that he might not be able to catch up with Bain, who was sitting on Carru’s back, his duties prevented him from stopping, at least until Bain entered the dense fog and was determined to escape. Stopping, this is not only to be responsible for one's own duties, but also to block the mouths of some caring people so that they have no excuses to make trouble for themselves.

However, something unexpected happened. When he saw that Bain in front of him was only a dozen meters away from the thick fog wall, and he was soon able to rush into the thick fog and get rid of his chase, Bain stopped. After he came down, he stood in place with his companion beast, as if he had been restrained by some invisible force, and looked very strange.

This abnormal phenomenon also caused Hoffman to slow down the pace of chasing. When he was only about ten meters away from Bain, he changed from running to walking, and he clenched the knight’s sword in his hand and approached Bain cautiously. kindness.

He didn't know why Bain stopped suddenly and stood there, but he was sure that there should be something in front of Bain that made Bain make such an abnormal action. He didn't want a battle between him and Bain to end. All the benefits were taken away by a third party.

Soon Hoffman bypassed the huge bodies of Bain and Carew, came to the side, and saw the scene Bain was watching at the moment.

I saw that five people came out in the thick fog in front of Bain. Three of them knew Hoffman. They belonged to the Powell family and the rangers appointed by the mountain city. The appointment ceremony for the three was still Hoffman. The host, UU read www.uukanshu.com, so although Hoffman is not familiar with these three people, he still understands them.

After the thick fog appeared, Hoffman and the Powell family also discussed that if the position of the three people patrolling the forest is in the thick fog, it is likely to be more violent. I did not expect the three who were thought to have died. People appeared in front of Hoffman in this situation at the moment.

However, judging from the overall condition of the three of them, the three of them seem to be very bad, and feel that they have suffered a lot.

In Hoffman's view, these three people were definitely not the reason Bain Ruf stopped, so he quickly turned his attention to the two strangers.

His sight was first attracted by the woman, because he had never seen such a beautiful and noble woman. Although she was wearing just an ordinary noble hunting suit, she still gave people a very noble feeling. , And make people feel ashamed, can't help but bow their heads.

It’s just that while the woman was so radiant enough to affect everyone’s eyes, the man who looked more like a bodyguard gave Hoffman a sense of danger, a sense of danger enough to suffocate him, this danger. The feeling even overwhelmed the woman's attraction to him, and he couldn't help but want to turn around and escape.
